OK- here's the idea.

Dio did a fantastic heavy metal tune called, "Last in Line"

I bought a camcorder battery at Fry's the other day and the "Made in China" piece of crap was non-functional right out of the box. These puppies ain't cheap and you have to invest a few hours of your time just to see if they're happening at all. All night in the charger and no action. So I had to take another trip down to Fry's and stand in that horrendously slow line to get some consumer relief. I got there early and the line was pretty small compared to its usual length. As I stood there I thought this situation would be the perfect subject for a Weird Al take-off on Dio's tune, with the lyrics related to the frustration and anger involved in being placed in this situation due to someone else not doing their job. This is a sealed unit. I don't believe anyone ever tested it prior to packaging for retail sale. Genuine SONY batteries (made in Japan) have a slight charge on them when they're brand new indicating some sort of testing has occurred. Damn slave laborers. No food for that guy for a week! :D

The only restriction on the lyrics is that they fit the original melody line.
